The Case for Zeeba, the Syphilitic Camel
I don’t care if he’s had a little sumthin-sumthin on the side. I don’t care if he’s lying about quitting smoking. The man has a record in office now. He’s actually been forced to stick to a single job, and take responsibility for executive decisions, though he’s given himself plenty of vacation time. So, all I have to ask is: Are you better off now than you were four years ago? -- Mary Pat Campbell, aka Meep, @ The Conservative C.

Your Say
It's a question that really has yet to be asked, as it wasn't asked, not seriously, four years ago:
If you were hiring for a position which carried a heavy load of responsibility, would your first choice be someone who kept essentially every significant scrap of record about him sealed, and unavailable for you to scrutinize?
Unless this guy won, as I am sad to admit he already has, election as the Chief Magistrate, or Commander-in-Chief, what have you, there is, for example, no way in hell he could get a security clearance were he applying for some lesser position in the government, or perhaps seeking a commission in the armed forces.
The question has not been asked, not the way someone hiring for a job or granting a security clearance would ask it. Who is this guy?
He's asking for nothing less than supreme executive authority, life-and-death authority in some instances, over the government of what is still a global hyperpower.
